In the Slabada village council, there is a tradition: during village and street festivals in large settlements, the best rural homesteads are identified with the awarding of the honorary title "Exemplary Household" and the affixing of a corresponding sign to the facade of the residence. For example, in the agro-town of Slabada, a single-family residential house owned by Zinaida Maksimovna Kritskaya has been recognized in this way, as well as a residential building of the homestead type belonging to Tatyana Vasilyevna Karbovskaya.
There are many long-livers in the Slabada village council. One of them is Nadezhda Mikheevna Shamshur from the village of Sviditsa, who turned 99 on September 27. The elder has worked as a teacher for a long time, sowing the seeds of reason, goodness, and eternity. Now she lives with her son in Lepel.
